dsniff or similar (win32)

I'm looking for a program like dsniff, but for windows. I have tried the dsniff win32 port but it crashes when I run it. (Using XP SP2. I do have winpcap if that matters). The site mentions libraries that I might need, but they aren't very descriptive about, or how to get them.

Any recommendations for a packet sniffer for windoze or perhaps the proper way to install dsniff? ;) Thanks

Slowwww :( I will use Cygwin as a last resort. I have a linux box I can use, but the whole point of this thread is because I want to use my windows notebook for this.

Thanks for the reference anyway.

Run dsniff junk in compatability mode as a test, for starters. Check for reason of crash via Event Logger.

I would SO laugh if those were compiled under/for Cygwin.

Cain is actually doing fine for sniffing around now.

I think for some reason or another, Ethereal's name changed to "Wireshark"… check it out.
